The Robo Stirรขโยข is the new way to make kitchen work quick and easy. It’s the tool that let’s you stir your food without actually having to stir.
Stirring food is such a chore! Obviously I need a Robo Stir.
The commercial for Robo Stir really makes it look like it is something that rotates in a whisk-like motion, so I was a little surprised when I got my Robo Stir in the mail and found that it really just vibrates.
Vibrates in a circular motion.
I was sure that it would be MUCH better in a pan and solve all my stirring needs, so I gathered a little help (Jana & Andrea) and we prepared to make white sauce to test out the Robo Stir.
We melted the butter.
We added the flour.
We set the Robo Stir in the pan to relieve us from the strenuous stirring duties.
I grabbed my camera and took the picture above and then grabbed my video camera to accurately demonstrate the rotational component:
Despite the missing ability to stir, the Robo Stir continued to jiggle and jump in one portion of my pan for a few more moments until…
…all three of the Robo Stir feet fell off as well.
So, if you are satisfied with a product that will give you 45 seconds of marginally helpful use, then Robo Stir is for you.
As for us, we have found a better use for the Robo Stir.
It delivers a mildly effective back massage.
Thank you so much for the wonderful blog ๐ Love it!
Oh dear, lol! I was fully expecting a big kitchen mess, not it falling completely apart. I hope you sent it back.
Hahaha I never heard of such a thing. I guess it could be useful??
Hilarious! I bought that epi-off thing, which was a complete waste of money. Now I don’t even both with anything on an informercial.
love your blog
Humorous post! I especially like the secondary use for the Robo Stir!
I have totally fallen for the “As Seen on TV” gadgets too, but this one really does look like it comes in at the top of the failure list! My worst purchase was the Magic Bullet. It worked great, but it only worked for a little while ’til breaking down. I got a cheap $30 imitation from JC Penney and it works SOOOO much better and no breaking down (yet!).
Well, that was very interesting. I’m glad you had very little in the pan. That would have ruined a good sauce or some teeth if it was covered up!
LOL – at least you tried it out before me! I don’t think I’d want added feet to my sauce/dinner.
HILARIOUS! And, seriously, thank you for posting this, because I am so easily sucked in by infomercials that I have allllmost bought the Robostir numerous times. WHEW!
